First-Order Trajectory Matching: Fast Ensemble Predictions of Chaotic, Turbulent, Stochastic Systems

arXiv:2606.11138v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We introduce First-Order Trajectory Matching (FTM), a surrogate-modeling method that learns the first-order local transport of probability mass from trajectories of stochastic systems. By matching the symmetric first-order motion of trajectories, FTM learns the probability current velocity, whose flow preserves time marginals to match ensemble averages, while also capturing current-like trajectory quantities such as fluxes, circulations, and barrier-crossing currents. FTM learns the current velocity directly from trajectories, avoiding drift, dif
The continuous advancements in AI and machine learning are pushing the boundaries of scientific computing, making methods like FTM timely for addressing complex system predictions.
This development could significantly improve the accuracy and efficiency of simulating chaotic and turbulent systems across various scientific and engineering disciplines, impacting areas from weather prediction to materials science.
Predictive modeling for complex stochastic systems could become substantially more accurate and require fewer computational resources, potentially accelerating scientific discovery and engineering design.
